God says yes to me...

by Kaylin Haught


I asked God if it was okay to be melodramatic

and she said yes

I asked her if it was okay to be short

and she said it sure is

I asked her if I could wear nail polish

or not wear nail polish

and she said honey

she calls me that sometimes

she said you can do just exactly

what you want to

Thanks God I said

And is it even okay if I don’t paragraph

my letters

Sweetcakes God said

who knows where she picked that up

what I’m telling you is

Yes Yes Yes

I had a friend, he used to say, "God is a woman- she's black, Jewish, and has slanted eyes." It was his way of saying that there's more in the universe than we can imagine, so why constantly curtail our options?

You reminded me of that funny way of being open-- and if there was a God, who bothered to say anything, I think it would be Yes, yes, yes.
